Several Ward and Smith attorneys delivered their take on what the new Emergency Temporary Standard could cover, how it might be implemented, and its various implications for labor and employment at the firm’s Fall Employment Law Update.
The webinar, centered on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (“OSHA”) guidance to fight the spread of COVID-19, focused on several main areas:
- expectations for coverage,
- vaccine mandates for federal contractors,
- health care employers,
- testing and payment requirements,
- wage and hour issues,
- employers obligations, and
- proof of vaccination.
